Abstract: This article presents the findings from a careful examination of evaluation studies funded by the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in 1974 and 1975. Particular attention is paid to their methodological adequacy and potential applicability to the development of child-relevant policies and practice procedures. The conclusion is that persons interested in developing a cohesive, national policy for children's welfare or for research on children will find little useful information in evaluation studies of the seventies.
